[titina]

Recently i bought HP Gaming laptop, now the time i would like to upgrade my all-in-one desktop hp omni 200-5316d to 8gb of RAM.

Currently RAM  is pc3-10600 1333mhz 4gb (2gb X 2gb)non-eec.

Must i purchase exactly the specification stated or can i upgrade to pc3-10600 1600mhz 2 X 4gb RAM non eec.

Hi:

Installing PC3-1600 memory will not speed up the memory, as the fastest it can run is only 1066 MHz.

Even the 1333 MHz memory only runs at 1066 MHz, which is the fastest speed of the processor.

I can tell you that installing memory in any HP PC that has an Intel series 5 chipset which yours does (and uses notebook memory) is very hard to upgrade.

I suggest you read this post and the one I referenced within this post, to make sure you get the right memory, or it will not work.
